Lyrics

Yo, this goes out to Hip-Hop worldwide
Straight from Leimert Park, California, Los Angeles
Yo, everybody in the Hip-Hop struggle, in the life
Struggle, makin' a name for themselves, makin' history, makin' a change
Yeah all the Project Blowedians, all the tape slangers, all the record pushers
This goes out to everybody doin' it on they own
Living Legends, C.V.E., Hieroglyphics
Likwit Crew, Global Phlowtations
Project Blowed, what's the code?
I been rockin' mics since I was 12 years old
I was born in the jungle, the concrete slab
Where people take any and everything that they can grab
Some **** chilled on the block, but we chilled in the lab
My Project was to Blow you up and break you off a slab
People are strange, and people are bad
But the gift of gabrier was something beautiful to have
It started at The Good Life, house of the first sightin'
We snatched raps out of they mouths when they were biting
There was nothing more exciting than to serve and perform
On Crenshaw and Exposition, God was born
He said, "Please pass the mic to whomever is tight"
Me and the Fellowship took it and we held it for dear life
The Innercity Griots, the wild, the style, the crew
The ones they got their styles from, but claimed they never knew
Already... yeah
The underground source, which everyone eventually feeds from
Influence the industry in a roundabout way
What up to Dilated Peoples, O.M.D., Pharcyde
Jurassic 5, Erule, Hobo Junction
What's up Saucey, what's up Tren', Medusa
Brothers Manifesto, Hip Hop Kclan
Well, the parties jumpin', the Blowed is packed
And when a crowd's like this, I'm ready to rap
But before I can bust a rhyme on the mic
I gotta serve you in a cipher just to earn my stripes
The scarred battle dog, with the underground catalogue
Fuck it, tryin' to make the world a better place
Instead of duckin', still tryin' to make the duckets
Make the knowledge rain down in buckets
Make a little somethin', and tuck it, just to give it away
Build a workshop 'round where I stay
Some people got the love, but they don't know the way
Some people know the way, but they don't know what to say
And I'm the sensei, I greet 'em from far and near
Better watch the light in your eyes, a star's in here
Leimert Park's very own Aceyalone
The one who made the whole world come off the dome
Up at the Blowed
What's the code?
Yo, I'd like to send a special shout out to Ben Caldwell
Much respect, thank you for everything you've done
Richard, 5th Streets, World Stage, Billy Higgins
Much respect due to the Watts Prophets
The Last Poets, and all the other poets out there
Much love
What's up A.K. Tony
You ever seen a rapper with fire in his eyes?
Wired up off the bud smoke, tryin' to fly?
Rap, rap, rappin', rhyme, rhyme, rhyme
Leimert Park and 43th turn into a landmine
B-boy's tryin' to flow they rhymes
And b-girls lookin' oh so fine
My man Bad Drew gots the fresh designs
And Cheatham got the sound set bangin' from behind
5 thousand boomin' watts, KAOS Network state of the art
Audio-video, filming and editing, Capoeira and meditations
Computers and telebeams, at the workshop every Thrusday night
Where we give the new definition to open mic
I hope y'all don't mistake glitter for gold
While we doin' it, and puttin' it down at the Project Blowed
What's the code?
Yo, special shout out to all the God love
And all the Energy out there
Positivity, all the righteous men and women
Yo, what's up to my homie Djinji Brown, Diamond D
Black Star, De La Soul
Organized Konfusion, Common, Bahamadia, KRS-ONE
There's a whole lotta people out there I respect
Project Bliznaiznowed... puttin' it down
